The stamps feature iconic one- liners now linked to each of the four main characters:
“That’s mad, Ted” - Fr Dougal
“That would be an ecumenical matter” - Fr Jack
“Will you have a cup of tea Father?” - Mrs Doyle
“That money was just resting in my account” - Fr Ted
Fr. Ted star Pauline McLynn says: “I’m delighted with the recognition Father Ted is receiving through these gorgeous stamps from An Post.
"The stamps are comical, colourful and capture the humour of Father Ted, which all of us knew was so special at the time, irreverent, farcical and fun!
"The legacy of the show and everyone involved with it lives on with Father Ted’s ongoing success and influence on language, on comedy writing and on generations of fans.”
